World Vegetarian Day

What is World Vegan Day?

The 1st of November is World Vegan Day, a day devoted to individuals who do not consume animal products. Veganism has been practised for at least 2000 years. November 1st also marks the beginning of World Vegan Month, which also happens to be November 1st. World Vegan Day is observed all around the world as a time to reflect on how far the vegan movement has progressed, to celebrate victories, and to emphasize how accessible and healthy a vegan lifestyle is.

World Vegan Day was established on November 1st, 1994 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the UK Vegan Society and the term "Vegan." The Vegan Society was founded in November 1944, however the precise date is unclear. Of fact, even though the name "vegan" and the Vegan Society were formed at this time, the concept of consuming exclusively foods that do not include animal products has certainly been around for much longer.
